[quote=Anonymous]I don’t mind driving kids home. I do really mind the one family who has left their 15 year old to fend totally for himself and just assumes we will pick up all the inconvenient carpool shifts. He’s my son’s best friend, his parents have been flakey since kindergarten, and I feel for him so I never begrudge him a ride - but even my kid talks about how much his parents suck. If you’re prepared to pay for uber all the time and she has friends who are happy to drive instead, fine, but if she is constantly bumming rides because you let her sign up for something you are unable to support, know that the “hi/bye” attitude you get from other parents may reflect their annoyance with you. My son and his other friends are resourceful in that they arrange their own rides most of the time, but it’s naturally pretty reciprocal.[/quote]
